Review of
Sammy
by Chuck Kelly

Finally freed from slavery, Sammy’s celebration is shortened by the death of his father. With the approval and help of other former slaves, Sammy escapes. My heart sank for young frightened Sammy. Without direction or family, his only dream, to be a cowboy seemed impossible after a severe beating in a white man’s bar in Texas.

A wealthy white rancher named Drew arrives at Sammy’s rescue, claiming to want nothing in return. Frightened Sammy hesitates but accepts his ride from the fateful town. Drew introduces him to new friends, an exciting life and a real paying job! Traveling to Abilene, Sammy was injured and spent many hours practicing his fast draw. Becoming the fastest draw brought Sammy less joy than he expected. Especially after meeting a beautiful girl.

You’ll enjoy the journey as naïve Sammy grows into a kind man with responsibility and self-acceptance. This is one of the best e-books I’ve read in months!
